[0006] Polymorphism, the occurrence of different crystal forms, is a property of some molecules and molecular complexes. A single molecule may give rise to a variety of polymorphs having distinct crystal structures and physical properties like melting point, thermal behaviours (e.g. measured by thermogravimetric analysis - "TGA", or differential scanning calorimetry - "DSC"), X-ray diffraction pattern, infrared absorption fingerprint, and solid state NMR spectrum. One or more of these techniques may be used to distinguish different polymorphic forms of a compound.
[0007] Discovering new polymorphic forms and solvates of a pharmaceutical product can provide materials having desirable processing properties, such as ease of handling, ease of processing, storage stability, ease of purification or as desirable intermediate crystal forms that facilitate conversion to other polymorphic forms. New polymorphic forms and solvates of a pharmaceutically useful compound can also provide an opportunity to improve the performance characteristics of a pharmaceutical product. It enlarges the repertoire of materials that a formulation scientist has available for formulation optimization, for example by providing a product with different properties, e.g., better processing or handling characteristics, improved dissolution profile, or improved shelf-life. For at least these reasons, there is a need for additional polymorphs of Febuxostat.

[0045] A crystal form may be referred to herein as being characterized by graphical data "as depicted in" a Figure. Such data include, for example, powder X-ray diffractograms and solid state NMR spectra.

The mixture was stirred at RT over 2.5 h, and then it was filtered to provide a wet white solid (0.65 g). The solid was dried in vacuo at 50 C over 23 h to give a white solid (0.24 g).
Example 22: Preparation of Febuxostat Form F14 [00127] Febuxostat (1.00 g) was dissolved in CHC13 (50 ml, 50V) in a 500 ml round bottom flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer. n-Hexane (50 ml, 50V) was added to the clear yellowish solution and a white precipitate formed. The mixture was stirred at RT for 2.5 h, and then it was filtered to give a wet white solid (1.28 g). The solid was dried in vacuo at 50 C over 23 h to give a white solid (0.55 g).
Example 23: Preparation of Febuxostat Form F14 [00128] Febuxostat (1.00 g) was dissolved in CHC13 (50 ml, 50V) in a 1L round bottom flask equipped with magnetic stirrer. Tap water (50 ml, 50V) was added to the clear yellowish solution and a white precipitate formed. The mixture was stirred at RT over 2.5 h, and then it was filtered to give 0.72 g of wet white solid. The solid was dried in vacuo at 50 C
over 23 h to give a white solid (0.15 g).
